First Trailer of 'Prometheus' Officially Released

Even after three promo teasers, the first official trailer of Ridley Scott's "Prometheus" posed more questions that answers. The trailer, which leaked earlier this week in bootleg version, did not include plot but rather quotes and breathtaking atmosphere.

Starring Charlize Theron and Michael Fassbender among others, "Prometheus" follows a team of explorers who discover a clue to the origins of mankind on Earth, leading them on a thrilling journey to the darkest corners of the universe. There, they must fight a terrifying battle to save the future of the human race.

The sci-fi horror film serves as a kind of prequel to 1979's "Alien". It is scheduled to open in U.S. theaters on June 8 next year. The first trailer was attached to David Fincher's "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo (2011)" which opened on Tuesday night.
